The score line now is 2-0 chelsea is doing what they know best and that is losing matches with points, chelsea defense is too porous I was expecting them to equalize but instead Everton still score to make it 2-0, Beto with a bruce for Everton maybe he can make it 3 before full time. The top four spot will be difficult for chelsea because there is no improvement in their game.

I was very disappointed on Chelsea performances, imagine Chelsea play the full 90 minutes against Everton without equalized single goal i think the season is already over for Chelsea with the way their performance is going on all this while; nothing they can achieve this season they should better and prepare for the next season that will be more better for them instead.

The top four have already difficult for Chelsea since they have lose their match again they should stop reason the top four, because they have utilized allots of their chances that will lead them into a top four spot.

Having hope in Chelsea before a game is the worst mistake you can make, because the games they are supposed to win easily are the ones they end up losing woefully. How can you explain that Everton beat Chelsea 3–0? It’s unbelievable, but it has already happened, and I don’t think Chelsea will be able to do anything this season anymore. Maybe Maresca was their best coach.

It can not be explained and I even did not imagine that Chelsea would lose that match. I thought they have risk of losing points but more likely with a draw and lose two points but losing the match and dropping all three points, especially with a big defeat like 0 - 3 were all not existing in my imagination before this match. Everton did their great performance but Chelsea with better player resource actually did had a terrible performance as a team so that they let Everton beating them down with this big and shocked result.

It's a very disappointed result for Chelsea but fortunately for them, Liverpool as a main competitor with Chelsea for a fifth position also lost their match too. This makes the competition between Chelsea and Liverpool is still very tight and chance is almost equal for both clubs.

Everton has always been a threat to big team this season especially at home, they'll taken advantage of your weaknesses if you show them signs of it. You can see that their shots of target is more than Chelsea's which means that Chelsea's defence was weak and Everton used their own opportunities very well. It was a very poor result from Chelsea and they need to get past this lose as quick as possible cause their hope to qualify for the Champions League is at the verge of collapsing.

A resounding defeat for Chelsea, they failed to score even the goal of honor, they were practically humiliated.
It's true that Everton at home against the big teams are a significant threat, but it's also true that the match was one-sided.
A real shame for Chelsea, but Everton still did what they should have done: take points home.

[rezakurnia66]

I'm totally disappointed as well,
I have no idea why they even changed coach, one thing is to change a coach another is to put in the right coach.
I try to believe that this liam Rosenior has potentials, but I haven't seen any progress at all, and this actually makes me doubt.
I just hope he fixes what so ever and make sure he gets the team back.

Actually Chelsea have over since acquisition by new owner how performing well during Abramovich era but right now Chelsea get out from the big four of premier league teams. Last season success winning FIFA Club World Cup trophy but sadly have eliminated drastically in Champion League defeating by PSG and likely will absent at Champion League next season due possibility finish outside the top fourth standings.

I don't have an ideas when management appointing Liam Rosenior as manager lack experienced manage the top teams but management not priority the experienced manager, now Chelsea has many difficult matches left this season absolutely not easy to finish at top fourth position.

Management made a major mistake by firing Maresca and appointing an inexperienced manager, which is why Chelsea's performance has deteriorated. Chelsea's chances of a top-four finish this season are very slim, considering they are now three points behind Aston Villa. The gap could even increase if Aston Villa picks up three points against West Ham. With seven matches remaining, it's difficult to expect Chelsea to finish in the top four unless they quickly improve their performance and win all their remaining matches.

[Just Say]

Aston Villa are trying to pull themselves up but we can see that due to their poor form, they suffered unexpected defeats in three consecutive matches however they are still ahead against West Ham today, so their 1-0 lead gives us confidence that they will at least win today. Overall, Aston Villa's third place in the Premier League points table was almost secure but they are now there after Manchester United seized the opportunity. In tonight's match of the thirty-first round, Aston Villa have continued to play in an aggressive manner since the start of the match, I understand that, also its right Villa are becoming worthy contenders to win this game, given the familiar atmosphere of their home ground.

I'm currently watching the match and they're trying, it's not easy to score Westham cause they play defensively and rely on counter, you could either score through set piece or penalty but Aston Villa managed to score and are looking for a second goal to seal the winning. Westham are not giving up easily they're also trying to equalize and have missed some good chances in the second half, there's still time for Westham to equalize.

Although the former manager was also doing it bad at some point but we can't compare him with these new guy, the new guy keep losing matches after making people to think that he'll do a great job in Chelsea, his first 5 matches was a success perhaps it is because of the teams he met with then, this time around I think Chelsea will do better without a manager, talking about the top four, it is far from Chelsea that's just the truth about the matter, they have not improve yet so we can even say anything that will favour them right now, there performance is bad, no person should give himself hope on Chelsea but if the step up that's good for them, for me, I feel this poor performance might be out of the season.

Judging by the performances of the Premier League teams competing in the quarterfinals, it seems Arsenal is the only Premier League team that will advance further in the Champions League. Liverpool, on the other hand, will likely struggle to advance to the semifinals, because facing a PSG side whose performance is far strong. I hope Arsenal can reach the final, and it seems they will, as if they advance, they will likely face Barcelona.

Well, I'll just say this: we have to be prepared for surprises. It could happen. I know they're up against Luis Enrique's team, and Luis Enrique certainly sees many scenarios and knows how to play against all teams, but I don't think they're invincible. In the Club World Cup, Chelsea, who didn't win anything that year, won the most important thing, which already says something very good. So it's better to wait, although we can make predictions and speculation based on what we've seen.

5:30 pm this evening Manchester City face Arsenal at Wembley. We will be seeing the top 2 of the England side competition for the EFL cup. What are your predictions on this game? Which team stand on the higher chance of winning the final? Which manager is more prepared for this game. because i am certain it is going to be a technical game, with high tension?

Arsenal has a win probability of 42.1%.

This is surely going to be an interesting one as it could be a tight one. I think if Arsenal wins this game and takes the 3 points, then the road to winning the epl title just got wider. Having the top two teams in the epl this season play is a game that lots of people would want to see. I think it's going to be a tight one and we'll probably have both teams scoring a goal in that game as Manchester city shouldn't be underestimated.
I do hope Arsenal wins this game. If they can do this, it would surely be motivating for them to play and not lose any of their remaining games, going on to finish the season strong.

+4 minutes of stoppage time have been added, and the match is now over. Watkins was the player who sealed the win for West Ham United, turning a 1-0 lead into a 2-0 victory.

Losses to Manchester United and Chelsea, and a surprising defeat to Wolverhampton, forced them to drop one spot in the standings. However, thanks to their victory over West Ham United, Aston Villa has made it clear that they will soon take over third place in the standings with the remaining matches of the season, as they are just one point behind Manchester United.
For Aston Villa, this is an opportunity to bounce back like they did early in the season. Meanwhile, for West Ham United, their situation is getting worse.

Tottenham lost again, this time to Nottingham Forest. This is a serious warning sign for Igor Tudor.

Tottenham lost again, this time to Nottingham Forest. This is a serious warning sign for Igor Tudor.

Tottenham are likely to fall into the relegation zone very soon. Tottenham  have not won a single one of their last 13 matches. They have drawn 5  matches and lost 8 matches. We have seen such a bad performance from tottenham in a row. There is no possibility of their performance improving. Tottenham's performance is declining day by day. Right now, they arel very likely to fall into the relegation zone. But if west ham lose the truck  again, then maybe tottenham will be able to qualify for the premier league.

I do hope Arsenal wins this game. If they can do this, it would surely be motivating for them to play and not lose any of their remaining games, going on to finish the season strong.

The two best teams in the Premier League are facing off but the football on the pitch is absolutely joyless. For those not watching, let me summarize. Arsenal is just trying to catch a counter attack whenever they can transition with long balls from the back. otherwise, they’re constantly fishing for set pieces. And City is trying to play the way they did against Madrid fighting tooth and nail to avoid giving away any dead ball situations.

Yes, it seems Spurs fans should be prepared to see their favorite team play in the Championship, because the current players no longer have the passion to win every game, they seem to not care about the results and seem to want to leave immediately to another team. I always said that the starting point of their downfall was the appointment of Tudor, if only he hadn't been chosen to replace Frank, it would still be possible for Spurs to improve their previous poor condition and improve their position in the standings.

[Velvet78]

My parlay with surprising picks lost really hard. Neither BTTS in Aston Villa - West Ham nor Tottenham to win happened...

Tottenham were even destroyed by 0-3 at home by Forest! They seem really decided to relegate this season. Tudor is soon to be sacked...

Chelsea the second best on the league is another mighty joke, they are not.

Could you read the thing in bold that I wrote below again please? I said the 2nd best away team not the 2nd best team. They are still like that statistically but messed up against Everton really hard. 

...
Chelsea are the 2nd best away team in the league this season. I can't say Everton impress home meanwhile. Who knows...

As the match between Arsenal vs Manchester City is almost don with their first half of the game and it is still 0:0 in the end of the first half of the game, yet no  clubs has taken the lead, the match is likely to play draw in the full time of the game but if eventually it happens that any of team dominate in today match and be victorious today, it will be a big win because Arsenal is topping the League with a huge points that i that think Manchester City could be able to hold down of not lifting the premier League trophy these season because it is only Manchester can be able to stop them, but with the performance of Arsenal players currently that are not ready to drop a point till they lift these trophy these season because for so many years Arsenal has be a trophylesss team, so i wish them the best to be able win the premier League trophy these season.

So I guess we can say that what is holding Tottenham from sliding into the relegation zone right now is westham who also continue to lost their matches as well, because right now, westham is sitting with 29 point while Tottenham is right above with 30 points, so let's say that Tottenham lost all points by losing their next game again and westham manages to win their next game, they will go up to the 17th position while Tottenham will slide to the 18th postion which means they entered the relegation zone..

In the beginning of this season, I think Tottenham was one the best performing club and every one thought they will be one of the top contenders to the title this season, but like we all know, sometimes, a teams end in the season is hard to predict.

[jakdanyel]

This is how the relegation battle looks after the recent results in the PL!

Tottenham should be grateful for Aston Villa to have beaten West Ham... Otherwise maybe they could have been in relegation zone now. They aren't in a safe place anyway though.  

I just don't have any words to explain their loss against Forest like that. I can only say that the players have completely lost their respect for Igor Tudor and they are doing their best to send him away. Probably it will happen at any time.

[Abbatty]

And it getting real at this point that we might be seeing Tottenham in the championship next season, today this is a game they should have won, a game that would have put them in a very good position to escape the relegation but instead they got beaten at home by Nottingham forest and now they are just one point off the zone. They are still yet to win a match at home this year and that is really bad for them.

The club will lose just than it players if they get relegated by the end of the season, to be honest I don’t think these players really want to play for this club anymore, they don’t look motivated, they don’t look like they even want to give it a fight.

The season is coming to an end and if they don’t start winning games they would be shocked to see themselves in the championship next season, for now they are save by a point but if these performances don’t change the worst will happen to them.
